Sophos Intercept X

Sophos Intercept X is the world's most comprehensive endpoint protection platform, combining traditional anti-malware with deep learning AI, exploit prevention, anti-ransomware technology, and endpoint detection and response (EDR) capabilities. Independent tests consistently rank Intercept X among the top endpoint security products for both protection efficacy and low false-positive rates.

The deep learning engine analyses file attributes in milliseconds, detecting both known and previously unseen malware without relying on signatures. CryptoGuard anti-ransomware technology monitors file system activity in real time, automatically rolling back any changes made by ransomware to return files to their pre-attack state. Exploit prevention blocks the techniques that attackers use to compromise applications — including credential harvesting, code caves, APC injection, and privilege escalation — rather than relying on identifying specific exploits.

For security teams that need investigation and response capabilities, Intercept X Advanced with XDR (Extended Detection and Response) provides cross-product threat detection spanning endpoints, servers, firewalls, email, and cloud workloads. Analysts can query endpoints live using SQL-based queries, access guided investigation workflows, and take response actions like isolating devices or killing processes remotely.

Xcobean deploys Sophos Intercept X for businesses across East Africa, providing initial deployment, policy configuration, exclusion tuning, and ongoing monitoring through Sophos Central. We also offer migration services from other endpoint platforms including Kaspersky, ESET, and Symantec.
